Axle Shaft Seals

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Econoline, 2005 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Axle shaft oil seals (1177) are susceptible to the same kinds of damage as axle drive pinion seals if incorrectly installed. The seal bore must be clean and the lip handled carefully to avoid cutting or tearing it. The axle shaft journal surface must be free of nicks, gouges, and rough surface texture.

For additional information on axle and wheel hub seals, refer to REAR DRIVE AXLE/DIFFERENTIAL - DANA 60 AND 70 , WHEEL HUBS AND BEARINGS - FULL FLOATING AXLE - DANA , REAR DRIVE AXLE/DIFFERENTIAL - FORD 8.8-INCH RING GEAR or REAR DRIVE AXLE/DIFFERENTIAL - FORD 9.75-INCH RING GEAR .
